| Name Meaning: |
A popular name in Ireland, James is from the Ecclesiastic Late Latin Iacomus, an evolution of the Greek Iakobos, which is from the Hebrew Yaakov. This name has its root in ya'aqob (supplanting, seizing by the heel). Some say Iacomus arises from an error in the transcription of manuscripts from the Greek to the Latin by an early monk. Seamus is the equally popular Gaelic form. See Seamus |
